Halibut is a fish best in the oven in a Pyrexx dish butter, garlic , creamer , lemon , capers served w/ garlic mashed potatoes. Or ceviche! Or sashimi over rice
It’s because of the price and how rare they were when we filmed this video. Now that we have the Calissa lures, it doesn’t hurt as bad because they’re not as expensive 😅
Exactly what occurred to me last week bro. It it happen to be the calissa super glow. I was lucky enough to find it 1/4 mile down from where I lost mine 😂
Epic! 30 inch halibut from the shore! You don't see that every day! I once caught a 26 inch halibut from a belly boat down Southern California on a ghost shrimp, and I thought that was great, and yet this tops that! Love your videos!
William Benner thanks again for reaching out today William! That’s what it’s all about! These experiences definitely are epic and it’s times like that we’ll never forget
That was a nice hali, you get more excited of someone else's fish than your own whats up wirh that bro. 😂 🎣🐟 i seen other videos like that, same reaction 😂. ✌️.
That sounds relaxing and fun hitting the jetty! Ever dropshot for halibut down there? Also, white seabass isn’t out of the question down there! Good luck!
Great video. I love that fact you and your dad are fishing together. I try to fish with my dad also any time we can. RIP Lucky Craft Lure. I feel like I know your lure after watching your video montage. I am going to subscribe right after I finish watching this video. We also fish California waters. That's was a awesome Halibut. The fishing gods blessed you guys with that monster.
The epic moment with the music heading into battle then "Sh*****t" haha R.I.P. my dude! Many memories made but more to come. Congrats Mario Resendez on the Halibut!
That suck about the lucky craft. Oh man that fish looks so delicious. I love eating halibut. Never had it fresh I could only imagine how good it is fresh. Same day cook and eat is the best.
God bless you guys. The comrade is invaluable, this brought back memories of my friends and I fishing all the time. Keep up the great videos. You got a new subscriber. 👍🇺🇲
That’s what’s up! Thank you so much! We believe- at the end of the day, it’s relationships and memories that lead to a fulfilling and happy life. These are memories we cherish and are proud to share!
DAMN THAT HALIBUT LOOKED JUICY AF! I started to salivate when I saw the dish, looks super delicious! Also, RIP glow sardine. Ive had that happen to me twice cuz i wasnt paying attention when casting. I thought I unlocked the bail but i didnt haha
Ian Lee thanks bro! Less heat next time would be even better. Maybe 5 minutes less time on each side too. But it did hit the spot! Those beef ribs were tasty too. And yes that glow sardine was epic
That snap was heartbreaking! That hali, though. One of my favorite eating species, raw or cooked. And your dad looked like he was having fun. Always great to get out there with people you love! Great vid!
+Salted yes, that lure has been through many trips and many many fish!!! Definitely heartbreaking. This lure outperformed all the rest combined! And yes the people are the biggest and best part of what we do. And yes the hali was soooo good
The break off was not your fault. Over time braid in the surf sand rubs and it exposes the lines coating. Then fine granules of sand actually pack into the exposed braid and you eventually get sand paper line that both dries out, breaks , or scars your rods guides at the same time. Braid just cuts to easy and its also ineffective dragging over rocky areas along reefy and or kelp areas on the beach which is prime for big halibut Solution Copolymer line that gives you the mono feel and the strength of braid. braid like power pro isnt cheap either. As for the Treble hooks ever thought about swapping out to two single inline VMC hooks. Check out the VMC single inline Stock #7226 designed to specifically replace trebles. Its so much easier to deal with a single hook vs a fish thrashings about with multiple trebles. You can see the pattern on a Rapala Coastal series lure and just repeat the same pattern on other hard baits. Super nice halibut to find from the surf a #12lb 30 inch is not your typical beach keeper . Ideal size for max fillets and eating quality as well. basically a perfect fish.
@@Hook2Cook Might also be interested in the 2020 MTF surf fishing contest in S.F. This year the pay out for biggest striped bass is expected to be $5,000 cash. There is also a big perch division and a accuracy contest and probably more this year as the tournament expands. Serious merchants will be present like ODM( Makes super high end custom surf rods and gear), reps from Daiwa, Shimano, Penn , Van Stahl etc and they all put in prizes including rods and reels. there is a drawing for gear as well. This is the tournament you want to win if your into surf fishing. The reps often want recognized anglers to test merchandise . We also host a yearly Sand crab classic perch contest here in Santa Cruz, Ca in March which has become California's biggest surf fishing contest. This is a more family orientated contest but their is prizes and a BBQ dinner but spaces are limited to 300 on the Sand crab classic.
I love your Channel! I have been inspired by what I see. Love the Cachuma vids as will so inspired that Friday I will be renting a boat at Cachuma and trying my hand at it with all my boys. If you have any words of wisdom let me know. Thank you again for all your hard work in putting these videos together!!!!!!!!
Thanks so much! Trout might be tough right now unless you’re going out before th sun comes up. Trout is usually late fall to spring, but ultimately getting on the water with the boys will be loads of fun. The crappie should be biting pretty good right now. Maybe ask the baitshop where the crappie are hiding. If you find them, they’ll be in big schools so the boys will get multiple fish
Hook2Cook is like watching family. There are others out there that share tips and tricks and a few locations. But there is definitely a different vibe here. I just can't put my finger on it. I am digging it for sure. Feels like I've stumbled on to the biggest secret on the internet and for now it's just limited to the 3.1k that are subscribed. Keep up the great work. I hope to fish with you guys someday.
Out N About CA wow! This comment was amazing. Thank you so much for taking the time to express this. People have said that same thing. There’s really something special going on here. Are you in our Facebook group? Hook2cook family?
Nice fish and great attitude! I'm up here in nor cal near bodega and we have to walk in. What beaches are you at that you can drive down onto? Would love to be able to do this up here.
You have it slightly wrong here man. That lure served you very well, and you DID retire it in the best way. You always have to pay Poseidon, hahaha. Great vids
Tell your girl the Penn slammer 3 cost i 4 times as much and you compromised to save the money to spend with her. Once the coast clears go get the Penn Slammer 3 and you understand why its 4 times as expensive. Look similar but the slammer 3 drag and true IP rated seals are off the hook good.

awesome time on the water, enjoy your trips keep it up, really like the cook videos hope i see u guys there one of these days
You had me cracking up at 4:35 😭🤦🏽♂️ I’ve had that feeling one too many time especially with expensive lures. That music got me too 😂
I love halibut got two 20 inch one 21 inch one 41 inch this year I'm in the sandiego area
We've all lost a Lucky Craft and had the same exact response... :) It's a cross between disbelief and grief.

Haha it’s like that for some reason isn’t it!? Haha it’s almost like watching one of these videos play out in real life!
@@Hook2Cook Yes, dont get me wrong i do too get excited when you get excited for a fish. Well on my way to fish at the jetties in long beach.. ✌️.
That sounds relaxing and fun hitting the jetty! Ever dropshot for halibut down there? Also, white seabass isn’t out of the question down there! Good luck!
Your LC mourning compilation bro almost made me want to cry 😬. Awesome video Ed 👍🏽👍🏽.
Lawrence M. Me too. While editing it I literally had a tear drop down my face
Your awesome man👍🏽👍🏽
Lawrence M. Only as awesome as the people like you who watch these videos!
I feel it, losing a bait can be heart wrenching!
Right! Especially a bait that put in so much work in its lifetime!

Randy Smith it was delicious!
@Hook2Cook are you going straight braid on the 110 nowadays?
No still throwing a leader. Learned a better knot
God bless you guys. The comrade is invaluable, this brought back memories of my friends and I fishing all the time. Keep up the great videos. You got a new subscriber. 👍🇺🇲

Bro you're killing it with your positive attitude keep up the videos bummer I didn't see you at the fishing tournament in Pacifica
Thanks bro! Due to budgeting and a wedding coming up, the mtf tourney didn’t make sense but we had a lot of Hook2cook family there.
@@Hook2Cook we'll keep on killing it down there bro

Yo what is your papa fishing with
Either one of two things. Sandcrab or mackerel
@@Hook2Cook they will bite on Mack huh
@@TiagoFranco07 yup, cut into small strips
Damn nice catches
Yung Genuine couldn’t fit all the fish into the full video

@@Hook2Cook yes I just joined. Frank Luna
Do you add a mono leader to your braid for your lure?
Fluorocarbon leader
Careful getting your fingers close to that swimming vise-with-teeth. Their bite is absolutely crushing.
Lol good way to describe it
What beach do you fish at
We fish from Santa Barbara as far north as Monterey and in between normally
Nice I want to start getting into surf fishing more and start my UA-cam channel. I was wondering what cameras you use to film your videos.
What fishing line do you use ? Pound test?
30# power pro braid with a 25# fluorocarbon leader joined with an fg knot
Thank you sir
I appreciate the quick response
👍🏽
Hook2Cook thank you , I subscribed to your channel very entertaining
Thanks for the support! We try to make it watchable ;)
I want to know your spot fishing please!!!!!
what was the rack that you put the halibut in in order to place it on the grill?
amzn.to/2zDtMGG
Is that straight braid?
On the halibut yes
I didn't know any better. I was straight braid. I now use a leader.
Nice fish and great attitude! I'm up here in nor cal near bodega and we have to walk in. What beaches are you at that you can drive down onto? Would love to be able to do this up here.
This is the only beach in California people can drive on. Oceano. We just got soooo lucky things lined up for this episode
Rip lucky craft. Singular tear shed
I remember the moment I saw the picture my dad sent of the halibut, I was in disbelief
@@therealnatersx Ha seriously! your dads a legend now!
I'm looking forward to this bro! The legend of the Fattest Flatty caught on the beach.
Thanks and yea, bro everything lined up for Mario and this catch!
You have it slightly wrong here man. That lure served you very well, and you DID retire it in the best way. You always have to pay Poseidon, hahaha. Great vids
Haha yes you’re right. Thanks!🙏🍻
I’ve probably lost over 20 lucky craft flash minnows. Hurts me every time
Lol wow! $400 in lures! still worth it! haha
lose the braid and go to copolymer. Braid weakens in sand or rocky areas and cuts to easy leading to breakoffs
Nooooooooo 😶
It's 11:30 PM and my girlfriend just caught me playing with my brand new Penn Battle ll 5000, why do I feel so guilty?
Lol because not many understand our obsession
Let me go fondle my spinfisher live liner 6500 and G loomis surf rod....
Tell your girl the Penn slammer 3 cost i 4 times as much and you compromised to save the money to spend with her. Once the coast clears go get the Penn Slammer 3 and you understand why its 4 times as expensive. Look similar but the slammer 3 drag and true IP rated seals are off the hook good.
R u a believer???
Yes what made you wonder?
@@Hook2Cook your perspective on material things and you don't cuss
